Advanced tolerancing techniques for endoscope optical design at Henke-Sass, Wolf

Discover, how customizing OpticStudio through a built-in, easy-to-use API reduced rotational symmetric irregularity (RSI) tolerancing errors and improves manufacturability.

Case Study Summary

Endoscopes are extremely sophisticated medical instruments that are increasing in sophistication and usage.

To be effective, endoscopes need to capture images of the highest quality, be capable of a wide range of motion, and be impervious to biological fluids, disinfectants, and sterilization at high temperatures. This case study shows how Henke-Sass, Wolf, an international leader in the design and production of endoscopes and other medical and veterinary instruments, used OpticStudio to build higher-precision endoscopes with improved final image quality.
